Oh my gosh ok so I thought of something for Eddie and you don’t necessarily have to write it you totally can if you want but I was thinking about one of the kids like older siblings is at Lucas’s game supporting him and realizes that Dustin, Mike and Erica isn’t there. After she sees them all coming out of hellfire she gets a little disappointed with them (cause she’s kinda a mom friend) and like kinda gets a little snippy with Eddie (who has known about her but never met her) and is like you really couldn’t change the date for one meeting, this was important all the while Eddie is just standing there stunned with heart eyes
I don’t know why this just popped into my head but I had to tell somebody
A/N: First, I am so sorry for taking forever to get to this. Second, this might not have been what you had in mind but I hope you like it anyway anon! Third, this really didn’t need to be this long but, yolo

It was a bright and early afternoon when Steve Harrington’s bad luck streak had finally broken. You’d watched, hiding next to Robin in the documentary section, as Steve asked out the pretty blonde to the championship game. Robin inhaled sharply, expression twisting sympathetically, when blondie blinked at him for a beat but you knew. Steve was one of your oldest friends and despite abdicating the throne, you knew the effect Harrington had on a girl – as gross as he was.
“Holy shit, Harrington I can’t believe she actually showed,” you said out of the corner of your mouth.
It was a solid indication that Steve was actually more nervous than he looked because he hadn’t reacted to your teasing. Instead, he shot you a wide-eyed look and bobbed his head. “Right?” With an anxious swipe through his hair, he glanced at you.
Answering his non-verbal question, you nodded. “It looks perfect as always.” Steve’s hair barely obeyed the laws of physics. Blondie leaned across Steve and waved.
“It’s nice to meet you!” She beamed. “Are you a senior?”
Some of the most incredible and beautiful things I have ever read, have been fanfiction.
love this post and what it talks about, but the quote “We Deserve a Soft Epilogue, My Love” isn’t originally from a fanfic—it’s from this poem about stucky by nikka ursula (the rest of stuff is fantastic!)
☝️☝️☝️
I saw this post on my dash and I had to go back through the reblogs to see if anyone pointed this out before. Because I like the post but I keep seeing the ‘we deserve a soft epilogue’ line mentioned in contexts like these and no-one ever credits the source properly?? Like the fic linked two reblogs above literally credits its title to “that stucky fanfic” which … yeah.
Safe to say this drives me a little bit mad because. This is how we lose track of a fantastic piece of fandom literature. And it breaks my heart. This is just one example. Something can one day be a foundational part of culture and the next day it’s just dead links.
